We came a little late (after Charles Phoenix's "Spooktacular" show at Bob Baker's Marionette Theater.) Jay's music set a great vibe/ambiance to Trader Vic's. Good to see Jungle Trader, Polypop, Ali-i, The Fluffs, Sven & Naomi, Sabu, Brian of Crystal Cove Media, JonPaul & Marie, Julienne (Jay's better half!) and of course the gracious hosts John and Frank. Can't wait to go again!
WoooHooooooooo!

Just want to say a big thank you to all the TC'ers who made last week such a great evening..looking forward to spinning more exotica classics, new bossa nova and other selections that fit into the contemporary Tiki mood this Thursday. I'll be mixing tracks from these....

alongside new tunes by Waldeck, Wax Tailor, DePhazz, the Karminsky Experience, Don-Tiki, Tikiyaki Orchestra and many more ! Hope to see you there !!

I'm going to the 7:30 Kings/Penguins game at the Staples, so TV is always on our schedule before the game. The redline makes traffic a breeze, so I'll be there about 5:45 pm! Might stop in after the game as well!

Not to get off track here, but the Happy Hour last Friday was quite a different scene than what I imagine the recent Thursdays are like.

It was like a USC frat party. I was impressed by how many of the youngsters were sucking down the tropicals. I tried explaining classic Tiki culture to the co-ed sitting next to me. She politely humored me the same way I used to humor an ex-hippie coworker. "Oh, did I ever mention I went to Woodstock? Let me tell you about it (for the 100th time)".
